The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Part II (May 2015 - Sept. 2018)

[My Main Man]

There should be a small tag inside the waistband that has #xx written on it. Google Gustin plus that number and you should find the original item.

Where in the waistband is this? I just looked and didn't see anything. I'm selling a pair and have gotten a few questions about it, but I have no idea what kind they are. I got them from one of their grab bag sales.

Pics here, if that helps: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321903938481?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

It's just above the right pocket on my Superlights.

So weird. I don't have that. I wonder if the tag never got added and that's how they ended up in the grab bag? Who knows. Thanks anyway.

Need some guidance. I need a late fall/winter coat. After coming into a Filson that doesn't fit, and seeing the quality, I decided to look for something in my size. Does anyone know where I can score a deal on something gray, navy, or charcoal in a medium to heavy weight, size M, wool?

Thanks for any help!

#1 how much you wanna spend?
#2 what's your size (chest)
#3 must endure what temperature ranges and environment i.e. wet or just cold?

Also someone earlier posted a good deal on a filson cruiser for 150 or so that was a great deal for new.

kind of a random thought but as much as i enjoy the brags i also like to see the occasional fail posted on this thread too...

not out of schadenfreude or anything, more like it's just part of the game, ya know? takes confidence to be like "yeah i was kicking ass until i got ****** kicked" lol.

as you were.

Absolutely. All of us have fucked up at some point. No shame!

Mine look like the same model as yours. Haven't been back to look for the tag that @Fueco mentioned but didn't see one earlier.

Only got three items today in one stop kind of sad

And surprised to see epaulets on the west coast. I've been through tens of thousands pairs of pants and these are a first and happen to fit perdect. So score.

Because they are **** ugly and great for a *** rag.

Regarding the Rolex, I've seen it. But I'll leave Takai to decide when he should post it.

Because they are **** ugly <....>

Ugly sells.

Okay, here's one. Generally speaking, LeSportsac bags/purses/etc are worth flipping; for Tokidoki for LeSportsac, multiply that by 2 or 3. So I was excited to find this purse today.









You see the problem. Fiog? Ocpopus? The rainbow zipper is also wrong. And the faded, badly sewn ribbon trim that says 'LeSportsac'. My excitement at finding Tokidoki overrode my red flags. :/
